The Heart Cut | #1 Stauning Distillery 50cl

Stauning Distillery came into being in 2005, in a shared dream between 9 friends. A chef, a doctor, a teacher, a helicopter pilot, a butcher and four engineers. No this isn’t the beginning of a ‘...walked into a bar’ joke. The distillery was set up on a shared passion for whisky and a fun ‘why not’ attitude, whilst challenging whisky norms - asking that ‘what if we…’ at every turning point - whether that's sourcing 100% of their raw materials locally or malting all of their own grain.

The Heart Cut enables spirit lovers to taste and experience casks from a variety of global distilleries. From small innovative producers in unexpected locations to internationally renowned brands, each bottling has been hand-picked for both its flavour profile and story.

Released periodically throughout the year, each carefully selected cask has been picked in collaboration with the partner distillery, telling their personal tale of people, provenance and the pursuit of crafting distinctive flavours through the art of production.

We were founded by two spirits and, in particular, whisky enthusiasts who have both worked in the drinks industry for over a decade each. We’re deeply passionate about spirits — not just drinking them with friends — but learning about their stories, enjoying new flavours and talking to the people who craft them.
